#1 Plan your Presentation… Before you open the
program, plan what you are going to do with pencil and paper.
You are going to do a 6 slide presentation lasting 5 minutes, so the first slide will be the main title.
What will the next 5 be?
Think about what you want your presentation to say…
Slides 2 through 6 would give more details about your subject.
Example: My Family – 2 – Your parents– 3 – Brothers and sisters– 4 – Grandparents– 5 – Aunts, uncles &
cousins– 6 – Your whole family at a
party
